This is of course not including the yearly Unity subscription, where Unity Pro costs $2,040 per seat (although they may have Enterprise pricing)

Absolutely ridiculous. Many Unity devs are saying they're switching engines on social media.

That's what this is about. The CEO said that devs who don't put ads in their games and monetize are "fucking idiots"

Unity isn't a game engine company anymore, they're an advertisement company that owns the rights to a game engine.

This is the same CEO who was at EA during their "worst company in America" awards era right?
